Inspired by “The Purple Cauldron Tavern” by User @GameMaster
Welcome one! Welcome all!
Welcome to the Centrum Bar where characters from all universes, all genres, and all messed up fan fictions come to hang out. You can have a drink or two or perhaps go all the way to be drunk as hell only to wake up again in the bar’s basement! Of course, that was a joke but we’re seriously open to that idea if that is your kink!
Share your stories, make new friends, murder someone, we’ll help you hide the corpse! Again, that was a joke unless we hate that person as well! Come on, don’t be shy! We’re open all the time!
breathes in aggressively
SO!
For those of you who are familiar with The Purple Cauldron Tavern by @GameMaster, you’ll know what this will be like. For those of you who don’t, well, I’ll ease you in. Just have your character walk into the bar and we’ll be good to go. No fixed plot. No stress. Just characters hanging out and possibly having fun.
My characters will be taking care of y’all (as they are bartenders and such).
And here—

(So, is there a template, or do we just jump right in, like in the other roleplay?)
(Just jump right innnnn— also, I have very low creativity for what to do with Aster so I’ll reply when I have something XD)
(It's fine XD I understand that. And also, the motivation to come up with something…)
(Yes, that too. Apologies XD)
(shrugs Well, I lack the motivation to respond to any of my 34 roleplays more often than I want to. You're good.)
With a bang, the door opened, and a man swaggered in, looking for all the world as if he was the center of the universe. Hands deep in his pockets, he sauntered over to the bar and sat on a stool as if it were a throne. "Get me the strongest you've got."
A woman, coming in behind him, whacked him on the back of his head. "Cut the act, you idiot," she said, sounding annoyed. "No one is glad that you're here. Just stay quiet and be smart for once in your life." Out of the corner of her mouth, she muttered, "Although that might be impossible."
Jonathan Silverise was an actor. A flirty one, too, who didn't know when to hush up and keep it in his pants. More than one angry father was after him right now, with a machine gun and the entire FBI. Okay, not really, but still. He has a roguish charm about him that few girls could resist, no matter how hard they tried.
His partner, Vanessa Cardui, was nothing like him. Graceful, but with an aura of annoyance about her that made people want to back off, she was the only one who could get her stupid cousin in line. She hated the job, wanting to be out doing anything else. She hated babysitting Jonathan.
The three bartenders all turned when the door flew open, all were surprised that they had guests coming in two minutes after the bar was open. Since when had they been so popular? They exchanged looks a bit before one stepped to the counter, standing at the opposite side to Jonathan and his cousin.
The bartender seemed to be one of those politely charming people with his perfectly set brown hair and his pair of sharp yet genuine red eyes.
“First off, good afternoon to the two of you. Second thing, by strongest, do you mean strong burn or something that would kill someone kind if strong?” The bartender asked, fidgeting with what looked like a butterfly knife.
“We also have savory foods and desserts if any of you fine people are interested,” the bartender added with a soft smile.
The bar was a bit chilly, perhaps because the air conditioning had just been renewed. One of the other employees can be seen unboxing a deliver package. Inside seemed to be various bottles of alcohol and other beverages, but mostly alcohol based.
"Anything. Everything. Maybe a mix of the two."
Ness slapped him again, then turned to the bartender, a weary expression on her face. It seemed to say, I'm sorry, he's an idiot, just ignore him or he'll never let you go home. "He'll have something that can knock him out with one drink," she said, sending her cousin a dirty look. He seemed half drunk already. "I don't want to deal with him right now."
It wasn't long before the door opened again. This time, a very recognizable woman in a black and yellow outfit walked in.
"Hello," Hinata said, yawning a bit and making her way to a seat.
(Did y'all think I would bring anyone else to a bar? XD)
The bartender gave the woman a soft smile.
“We do have drinks named ‘Tranquilizer’ and another one named ‘Paralyzer’ either should do the job… however…” he turned to the shelf behind him and began going through the drinks behind him.
“Are you two human or are you something else?” He asked, glancing back at them when he found what he was looking for.
When he did, the bartender raised his brow.
“Hey, you back for another round of chess or another round of drinks?” The bartender teased the newcomer as if he’d known her before.
The other employees glanced at the newcomer, all of them recognized her but didn’t want to show themselves just yet.
"He's Enhanced," Ness said, jerking her finger at Jonathan. "He'll be fine." She shook her head. "He's human, I'm not. Just give him something that could knock out a minor immortal, and he'll live. Sleep for a while, but I'll finally get some peace and quiet." She sat down as well, grinning at the newcomer with a friendly smile.
"What's wrong with a bit of both?" Hinata said, chuckling softly. She wasn't being as open as she usually was, due to the two other patrons. Of course, this would change drastically once she was drunk.
The bartender nodded at the note the female made, setting down the glass he was going to use to serve the two in front of him.
“Hinata, if you don’t mind, can I have Violos service you first? I’ll be with you in a bit,” the bartender with brown hair stated as the one with black hair perked his head over the counter. His counter was to the right of the first’s.
With that, the bartender began mixing a drink for the male. He decided on the ‘Tranquilizer’ since he didn’t want to mess up the man’s neural system that badly.
“By the way, do you have any stories to tell? Also, I don’t think I’ve got your names yet,”
The black-haired bartender smiled softly at the conversation that was going on between Sora and the two. He finished wiping the counter of his and was ready for service.
"Oh, I've got stories all right," Ness said with a grin. "There are so many of them I could be telling them without a break for over a hundred years, and it wouldn't be a quarter of them." She sent an annoyed look to the man beside her. "This guy doesn't really have any stories at all."
"I'm Jonathan," her cousin said smoothly. "And I came back from the dead. Doesn't that count as something?"
"No," Ness said shortly.
The bartender snickered at the soft remark the man made.
“How cute…” he mumbled under his breath. He should’ve been used to mortals and minor classes visiting by now. Since the drink was a cocktail, the bartender decorated the drink with some zesty slices on the brims of the glasses.
“Here you go, and one for you too,” the bartender stated as he placed the drinks in front of the two.
"Thanks."
When Jonathan tried not to drink it, Ness gave him a look so full of loathing and irritation that he complied, drinking it down and passing out almost immediately. His cousin snapped her fingers, and he was lifted into the air and set slumped in a corner to sleep peacefully.
"Thank the gods," she grumbled, taking a sip of her own drink. "I finally have some rest. I'm Ness, by the way. I'm an immortal."
The bartender nodded.
“You can call me Sora. I’m not exactly immortal but I’m clearly not human,” the bartender smiled when he said so.
“I’m a half Phantom, half demon, by the way” the bartender stated, wiping a glass that was in his hand.
“What brings you here anyways?”
"Babysitting my dear old cousin," Ness said, taking another drink, this one slightly longer. "He can't be brought to the Underworld again. He annoyed the crap out of Hades, so I'm stuck with him until they can make a big enough gerbil wheel for him." She shook her head. "And luckily, there was a bar. And as long as there was no one there he could pick a fight with, then it's good."
Sora chuckled softly.
“It was good that he did choose to pick a fight with any of us. That would be a death wish honestly,” the bartender softly mentioned.
“Anything else I can get for you? Foods, snacks, appetizers, and such?”
Hinata nodded at what was said, not getting up to order yet. She pulled her phone out, texting someone.
I'm exactly were you'd expect me to be.
You'd best hope Mama don't here about this, she'll rip you a new one.
That's why I'm telling you. You can keep my sister busy for a while, right?
There was a long pause while Hinata waited for a response, so she put her phone away. She made her way over to Violos's counter.
"I'm thinking of trying something new today," she said. "Any suggestions?"
“Well, we do have some new items. For you, I would recommend a drink Sora created called ‘Matrix’. And yes, it is as extra as it sounds,” the bartender that is Violos recommended.
“There are also the new dishes on the menu. I recommend the Sweet Potato Fries since it does go quite well with the said drink,” Violos added.
“Interested?”
"Both sound good to me," Hinata said, smiling a bit. Of course Sora had made a drink that extra. She looked over at the other two patrons, finding it interesting the one was already passed out. Well, it wasn't her business. If all went well, she'd be joining him soon.
